Description
Behind the song
This song was written one Ash Wednesday after seeing people, so different from each other, each hurting, yet hopeful too, alone and lonely, yet somehow also finding the courage to come together, on a cold, cold night, to receive the sooty sign of the cross on their foreheads. "It is grace, only grace, that brings us here, hold us all together here."
Also inspired by these words from Frederick Buechner, "Here is the world. Beautiful and terrible things will happen. Don't be afraid. I am with you. Nothing can ever separate us. It's for you I created the universe. I love you."
The Lyrics
Verse
Things are broken here.
Things are shared
Things are carried here
Hearts bow in prayer
Chorus
It is grace, only grace
That brings us here, holds us together here.
It is grace, only grace
That brings us here, holds us all together here.
All together here.
Verse
Things are dying here
Things are torn
Things are growing here
And burdens borne.
Chorus
Bridge
Amazing grace, hear the sound.
Here is where hope is found.
Things are shared
Things are carried here
Hearts bow in prayer
Chorus
It is grace, only grace
That brings us here, holds us together here.
It is grace, only grace
That brings us here, holds us all together here.
All together here.
Verse
Things are dying here
Things are torn
Things are growing here
And burdens borne.
Chorus
Bridge
Amazing grace, hear the sound.
Here is where hope is found.
Chorus
